LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas) Submersible Pump

Recognized as the industry leading brand for high quality fuel management solutions, Gilbarco Veeder-Root successfully introduced the LPG Premier pump range in 2003 and continues to offer the best and most reliable LPG pump solution in the market today, suitable for both automotive use as well as industrial applications. The Veeder-Root Red Jacket LPG Premier range of submersible turbine pumps has been designed to help service station owners meet these demands in every way – be it better flow performance, durability or adaptability – whilst maximising profitability.

Submersible Technology - the flexible solutions to customer needsA key attribute of the Veeder-Root Red Jacket LPG Premier and Premier HiFlow pumps is their flexibility, enabling customers’ total cost of ownership to be reduced as requirements change.

A prime challenge for service station owners is optimal site layout. The Veeder-Root Red Jacket LPG Premier pumps make it viable for the tank to be stored on site or at a remote location, underground or above ground, without degrading performance.

Whatever the layout, the pumps aren protected from the forces of nature making them safe and unobtrusive.Furthermore, one pump can supply a number of dispensers with guaranteed flow rates, so as demand for LPG increases, the Veeder-Root Red Jacket LPG Premier pumps can be easily adapted to maximise customer benefits:

> Fewer pumps mean lower maintenance and less energy consumption

> Fewer lines mean lower installation costs

Benefits of submersible technology vs suction

Submersible technology provides the most flexible solution - more reliable, more efficient, more cost-effective and more convenient to operate.

Quality > Greater customer satisfaction through high performance> No vapour lock under any circumstances> Low noise

> Greater reliability> Longer life> Less maintenance

Delivery > Greater flexibility to meet customer requirement and/or local regulations> Can be installed above or below ground> Suitable for large or small tank sizes> Can be installed remotely or on-site

> Safer, cleaner installation> No additional bypass components> Less obtrusive

Cost > Reduced operating costs> Less power consumption for equivalent flow performance> Less maintenance> Larger underground tank sizes mean fewer fillings required

The high performance pump for a cleaner environmentThe Veeder-Root Red Jacket LPG Premier pumps are explosion proof submersible units comprising a pump and motor section sheathed in a stainless steel shell, and electrical components encapsulated in a high performance epoxy compound mounted within the column pipe of the motor. Able to pump butane, propane or any mixture of the two, these multi-stage centrifugal pumps are designed to pump liquefied petroleum gas in its liquid state. They are capable of supplying 5 litres/hour at 9.5 bar for industrial applications and up to 150 litres/minute at 7.8bar offering an equivalent flow rate of 35 litres/minute for up to 4 fuelling points.

ISO 9000Every LPG unit has been designed and manufactured in Gilbarco Veeder-Root’s ISO 9001 certified facility in Pennsylvania, USA. The Veeder-Root Red Jacket LPG Premier products are ATEX approved and have been certified by LCIE, France as having complied with the quality standards set by the International Organisation for Standardisation (ISO) in accordance with its ISO 9001 quality standard.

Improved liquid flow through motor for cooling and lubrication.

Complete solutionGilbarco Veeder-Root continues to make strides in the industry with a complete LPG solution including probe installation, tank monitoring gauge and LPG dispenser.
